today and asked dr. rice about this threat to america as a global power. >> well, it is a national security threat, the state of k-12 education in the united states first and foremost and most immediately because we find that even the ability to find people who can serve in the armed forces is being compromised. we learned in the task force some 70% of our young people are not fit for military service. a significant portion is because they can't pass the basic skills test to get into the military. secondly the issue of competitiveness for the united states. there are good jobs to be had. ceos will tell you that they would like to bring more production back to the united states, but finding basic skill levels that are appropriate to today's task our education system is failing there. but for me, as a child of birmingham, alabama, where education was the way out, the most serious aspect of this is what it's doing to us to the social fabric of our country. we are quickly becoming two countries, one educated

how many exist in your state or even in this country at this point has been around 5% at least nationally. nevertheless these ads go after a certain kind of voter. >> absolutely. they live in places like ohio, which in the southeast portion of the state and st. clairsville and belmont county, ohio where there are a lot of coal and manufacturing jobs. both campaigns have released ads targeted specifically to this region in the state. it's traditionally democratic. it voted for obama barely in 2008. the republicans see an opportunity to peel away the margins and perhaps put that part of the state into the red column. if they're successful in doing that, it pares down the 4% margin that obama won by four years ago in ohio. that's why we see ads like that, and whether they're effective or not, we have to wait and see. >> thank you very much. greatly appreciate it, henry. it's the next major highlight in the presidential race. the first debate between president obama and mitt romney nine days away in colorado. we have a preview some are saying of the first debate via the "60 minutes" interview
